Mitt Romney cleans up with Latinos in the GOP primary in Florida beating Newt Gingrich, 42%-25%, a similar margin to his overall statewide total (42%-27%), according to an NBC-Marist poll released Sunday. (Latinos made up 12% of GOP primary likely voters, the same margin that voted in the 2008 GOP primary, according to exit polls.)

The margin against Romney is similar to what Obama won in 2008 against John McCain.

In 2008, Obama won Latinos 57%-42%, a 15-point spread, in Florida. According to the NBC/Marist poll, he wins them in the Sunshine State by 16 points -- with 3 points fewer for Obama and 4 fewer for Romney.
